Fascinating isn't it?

A satire parenting blog posted that some thread on here was showing just how awful some moms/parents can be. That was probably 2013 or so. I left that blog, but I come here more than I'll admit to.

It's been an eye opening experience.


Similar - another VA mom group talked about the "mean girls" on DCUM - kind of like eating chips, you get sucked in.

Googled TTC information and found this site. I live in the DC area and realized it's a local forum. Fell into the worm hole a few years ago and haven't been able to leave!

I ran a search on reviews of certain private and public schools in the area, and a whole bunch of links to threads here came up.

I followed the links and honestly, wish I had never done so.

Googled for a recommendations on a specific daycare. Still here 7 years later. I would never ever admit it in "real" life.

Googling about schools and the Private/Independent forum popped up....this was 3 years ago and still here.

I learned about it when googling the word "snark." As the PP's comment proves, DCUM is the Holy Grail of snark.
